THE SUMMONING. NY: Pinnacle, 2002. Later Edition. 4 1/2 x 6 3/4. Paperback. As New / As New. ISBN: 0786014806. An evil older than time is rising from the desert over the small town of Rio Verde, Arizona. Brad Wood has performed a lot of autopsies, but never like this one -- the body is purged of all blood. Fear made Sue Wing run for the darkened school that night -- fear she could only name in the Cantonese of her grandmother: "Cup-hu-girngsi" -- translated as "corpse-who-drinks-blood".
